I went into Anno 117: Pax Romana as a total newcomer to the Anno series. I have spent the last few years dipping my toes into building sims through games like Civilization, Jurassic World Evolution and Two Point Museum, so I felt ready to try something with a different flavor. When Ubisoft announced a full city builder set during the … Read More

I have played a lot of games across a lot of systems, but the Dragon Quest series has always had a special place in my heart. Growing up as a massive fan of Dragon Ball, I gravitated towards Dragon Quest because of Akira Toriyama’s distinct art and then came to fall in love with the charm and sense of adventure … Read More

Tales of Xillia was one of the earliest entries in the series that I tried back on the PS3, and it stuck with me in a way few JRPGs of that era did. When Bandai Namco announced that a remaster of the game was coming as part of the Tales Anniversary Remastered Project, I knew I had to jump back … Read More

By the time I started up Jurassic World Evolution 3, I already had a pretty good idea of what to expect. Frontier Developments has carved out a neat little niche with its Jurassic World Evolution series, part management sim, part dinosaur sandbox, and this third entry continues that trend in true Frontier fashion. They’ve shipped it relatively quickly after the … Read More

Ten-plus years of silence from one of the most legendary action franchises of the mid 2000s, and then earlier this year we got the reveal that not only would more Ninja Gaiden be coming, it would also release this year.

Maybe it’s the series’ distinct art style, maybe it’s the promise of short, sharp horror over sprawling open-world chaos, but I was craving something eerie, something that would crawl under my skin for a … Read More

When Obsidian Entertainment announced The Outer Worlds 2, I didn’t need much convincing. This is one of the busiest and most reliable studios around, they’ve already shipped Avowed and Grounded 2 this year alone, and if any team knows how to make a witty, choice-driven RPG set among the stars, it’s them. I had a great time with the first … Read More

If you know much about my gaming tastes, you’ll know I’m a massive fan of the Persona series. Their mix of intriguing stories, the blend of intense rpg battles and systems and slice of life elements and amazing characters put it at a level that make it hard to match. In recent years, the series has been making its way … Read More

I’ll admit it, despite owning a Wii back in the day, I never played Super Mario Galaxy or its sequel. I watched friends rave about them, I heard the music, I saw clips of people running around tiny planets, but for one reason or another, I just never took the plunge. And that always bugged me a bit, because these … Read More

We had the Silent Hill 2 Remake last year, there’s a new Silent Hill movie on the way, as well as a remake of the original game in development. And now we have Silent Hill f, a completely new entry that dares to take … Read More
